You can stop Gnus tickling you by setting the `user-mail-address' to a default "from" value. That will at least prevent you from getting those bogus values. But that won't run the appropriate gnus-parameters, or set any other headers up. There have been a few discussions about this on this and other lists recently. Apparently there are a couple of external packages you can try: Gnus Pers, and Gnus Alias: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusPers http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GnusAlias I haven't tried them, but they are definitely there to solve this sort of problem... > Does anyone have something like this set up? _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list info-gnus-english@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
